Modern History Tutor Burnside, SA
The most important thing a tutor can do for their student is to accommodate their learning style. Students have ranging techniques and motivations when learning content. Personally, I struggled with auditory learning as a student, and would therefore ask my teachers to give me a range of tactile learning techniques to assist in my learning. I…

Modern History Tutor Glenside, SA
I believe the most powerful way a tutor can aid a student is by giving them confidence. More than often, students can show more vulnerability in a one-on-one session than in a classroom surrounded by their peers, and so the best thing I can do is use these private sessions to impart confidence in the students by making them see ways they can…

The ultimate goal of tutoring is to help students become independent learners. A tutor must be willing to adapt to different situations and learning…

In my opinion, a tutor must be able to empathize with the student and create a safe space for them. Its important to be constructive and patient especially with the ones that take time to grasp topics.

It is very important as a tutor to understand your student. Be his silent friend and connect with him. Read his mental abilities, his interest, observe his qualities and disabilities, his way of learning things. And then try to impart the teaching depending on all these factors. Each student is different and so is the method of teaching. Teaching…

Expanding on what I have written earlier, I think that one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is be prepared, and always willing to learn.

Inside StonyfellTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 5 student Alyssia worked on adding and subtracting mixed number fractions with different denominators, alongside creative writing that focused on using commas and exclamation marks.

In Year 10, Ethan tackled equations of straight lines—identifying gradients and y-intercepts—and practised graphing them accurately.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Grace reviewed titrations in Chemistry, focusing on calculating molar ratios and manipulating the n = CV formula for various titration scenarios.

Recent Challenges

In Year 4, a student's handwriting made their work hard to follow—random capital letters in the middle of sentences disrupted clarity and slowed review. "Sentences need to be conscientious and not rambling," one tutor noted, as unclear written expression muddled key ideas.

In Year 10 maths, another relied heavily on worked examples rather than attempting new problems independently; this habit meant that when faced with unfamiliar algebraic questions, they hesitated instead of applying concepts creatively.

A senior chemistry student often checked formulas instead of trusting recall during molar ratio tasks, which interrupted flow and reduced confidence under timed conditions.

Recent Achievements

One Stonyfell tutor noticed a big change in a Year 11 student who, after initially struggling with titration equations, was able to solve complex problems independently by the end of the session.

In Year 10 maths, another student who previously hesitated to ask for clarification now comes prepared with specific questions and actively steers sessions toward their trickiest topics.

Meanwhile, a younger primary student has started applying fraction techniques on their own with fewer reminders than before and can explain how commas separate ideas in writing—something they often missed earlier.

Local Spots for Tutoring

If you'd prefer not to have lessons at home, tutoring can also take place at a local library—such as Burnside Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like St Peter's Collegiate Girls' School.
